Tweet KNDY's photos that need identification

Greetings everyone,

Here are more photos but this time Westerns that I have. I'm not too familiar with early Westerns, so perhaps someone knows who the Western star is and if it's from a film:





Thanks in advance!

This is Tom Mix. From the people standing around him, it's either a behind the scenes shot or a personal appearance.

The guy on the left is William Boyd aka Hopalong Cassidy. The guy on the right is a very young Robert Mitchum. Mitchum was in quite a few Hoppy movies. Not sure which one this is.

Thanks Jim!!!

Pretty sure the Hoppy film is "Hoppy Serves a Writ" (1943).

Thanks everyone for their help! By any chance, does anyone know who this photo is of and what year or what film?

Maria Montez, "Cobra Woman" (1944)

I have one of Fifi D'orsay from "Mr. Lemon of Orange" and you can see right through her top.

So why are you hiding it from us? Post it right here on the NippleVille ... er, NitrateVille site!

Err, this certainly doesn't even remotely resemble Joan Crawford. However, It does look allot like Alice White. I thought that it was her immediately. And Alice was rather found of not wearing much, or wearing nothing at all quite frequently from what I have heard. So it might well be her.

Look above, kid, Fifi D'orsay from "Mr. Lemon of Orange"

Louie D,

Don't care it's still Alice White and not Crawford. Just because there is another photo of Joan with a transparent top proves nothing. They are obviously two different people. How could anyone here not be able to tell right away that it's Alice White in the second photo? Is that being sold as Crawford? You gotta be kidding me???

OK, I looked through the thread 3 times and there is not one photo of Alice White to be had. The photo I posted is of Fifi D'orsay from "Mr. Lemon of Orange". Where the heck is all this Alice White talk coming from??

I have this unidentified photo, that was with some other (mostly Paramount) pictures from 1916-1917. Recognize anybody?

This exchange is takiung on the aura of that old joke:

Man comes into a diner and tells the waitress, "I'll have a cup of coffee and a donut." To which the waitress replies, "I'm sorry, we're out of donuts."

The guy responds, "That's okay, just give me a glass of milk and a donut." And the waitress says, "I told you, we're out of donuts."

Undeterred, the guy says, "Well, don't worry about it, I'll just take a glass of water and a donut."

The exasperated waitress can take no more, and she asks the man: "What do you get when you take the fire out of fire truck?"

"Truck . . ? the man guesses.

"And what do you get when you take the Newton out of Fig Newton?"

"Fig . . .?"

"That's right, and what do you get when you take the f**k out of donut?"

The man thinks a minute, then says: "There's no f**k in donut."

"THAT," says the waitress, "is what I've been trying to tell you!"

Here, for the record, is Alice White, who bears no resemblance whatsoever to Fifi D'Orsay OR Joan Crawford!

Why are photos misidentified when it should be obvious who they aren't? It's not like Alice is hard to ID. When I looked at Mary Brian photos a while back I found around ten ID'ed as her that weren't. One was even Billie Dove.

RIGHT! I have NO IDEA what he's babbling on aboot.

In that last photo, it looks like Alan Hale on the left, and possibly Elliot Dexter with his back to camera.

Miss Dupont, good spot! I agree that it's Alan Hale (Sr.) on the left. If Elliot Dexter is in the middle, this photo must be from The Eternal Temptress (1917).

I'm not at all convinced that the two men in the photo are Hale and Dexter. The guy on the left looks too old to be Hale, facial features also do not seem right. He also seems to be wearing some sort of "rug" or hairpiece. The Woman in the photo is definitely NOT Lina Cavalieri.

Bruce,
I'll check the photos for THE ETERNAL TEMPTRESS at the Herrick on Wednesday for you.
